Jamie Benn
Season recap: Benn started his eight-year contract that averages $9.5 million and also started a season under new head coach Ken Hitchcock, and he was good for much of the first four months, but not great. He then finished the season with a flurry and pushed his numbers up to a very solid 79 points in 82 games. In the end, it's difficult to argue with the statistics on a team that really struggled to score goals.
